Question

Templates for multiple forms.

Currently, I work with multiple interactive PDF forms that are generated in Word.  They all have essentially the same layout with different content.  In the past, we used LiveCycle to create these interactive versions that linked in the TOC as well as external sites.  We were able to save the template for this in LiveCycle since it didn't change much and apply it to new Handouts when they were created.  Can a template version of this type be created in Acrobat 11? 

  Essentially, I'd like to apply fields and links to one Word doc to create an interactive PDF.  Then save the layout of the fields and such from Acrobat and apply it to another Word doc later.

  Is there a way to do this?

Thanks up front for any help...it is greatly appreciated.

Sure. You've always been able to change the underlying page content by replacing the pages in Acrobat. Any fields, links, bookmarks, JavaScript code, and other types of annotations remain unchanged. You may need to adjust the position and sizes of some fields, but that's usually quick work.
